Australia sounds corker mate. Sun, BBQ’s, league - I will have to just put up with the local Aussies.
Yep there's opportunity out there for sure, grass isn't always greener though, specially in London. Wouldn’t call Spain an economic powerhouse, they have their cost-of-living crisis like most places, other Spanish-speaking countries in South America have a lot worse crime probs than nz, but hard to know what's in our kid's future re. employment, AI might take half today's jobs in 20 years. I'm not so sure it's as dire here as you're thinking, but you could be right.
Still got a dog, kids and parents keeping me here but as they slowly leave (in more ways than 1) the tie to NZ will dwindle.When are you going??
I moved to Oz in my 30s and stayed for 23 years. Enjoyed very much as most of the early part I was single and partied like no tomorrow.
Tuvalu mate. When it eventually succumbs to the tide (not in my lifetime) there will be some serious compensation from someone who didn't cull enough cows or didn't buy enough Teslas
Non political until he got to the 2nd to last paragraph and then his DNA kicked back in.
To be fair I said ‘neither main party offers the solution’ so I will say it’s more anti all NZ politics
As slippery as the politicians!To be fair I said ‘neither main party offers the solution’ so I will say it’s more anti all NZ politics
By the sound of it, the former PM’s residence, Vogel House, was in much better condition but was sold back to the Vogel Family in 2020. Vogel House wasn’t up to Muldoon’s liking so he kicked out the dental students out of Premier House and had it returned to the PM’s official residence.Stuff

Thank goodness the derelict premier house didn’t fall down on the guests for Christmas
I'd rather have the $30m!
'Sinking' Pacific nation is getting bigger: study
The Pacific nation of Tuvalu—long seen as a prime candidate to disappear as climate change forces up sea levels—is actually growing in size, new research shows.phys.org
Rick O’Shay what about our whole Tuvalu scam now?Noticed you mentioned a 2018 article. I googled Tuvalu land size and cross referenced articles after 2018/19 and I was surprised to find there were some other articles from that timeframe that corroborated at least some parts of it. Some mention islands can shrink or grow depending on many variables. Even the article that had that information said there was nothing positive for these islands from climate change. Just thought some boring facts and nuance would brighten your day.

. When you mention 'they' is that a specific quantifiable that can be researched or just a gut feeling?I think it’s all very complex, and a whole bunch of people whose ordinarily aren’t very relevant, suddenly decided they were in fact smart enough to figure it out if they just massage the numbers in a dataset.
That type of type has infected a whole realm of things. Look at the COVID vaccine. Regardless of anything looks like risk factors were off by 10x
Climate “science” is just that. I quote science because they don’t do any science. They simply crunch numbers according to models given to them.
the ones I’ve run into are almost exclusively all Caucasian, mediocre ,male and all share a direct university to research life experience . They’ll waive a million studies and predictions all from other mediocre academics and not a single one of them has every built anything ever.
Do you think all these climate science PhD guys are complicit in some political conspiracy to bullshit everyone? What are they supposed to be building?
